I want one. So I popped 20 00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:19.439 that spot and I was like, yeah, I want that. We got 21 00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:25.760 two spots left, Yes, we do. There's still two spots left if 22 00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:30.480 anybody's interested, that's right. Yeah. And then when I when I looked 23 00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:34.760 this dude up, man to be honest, just to you know, stop 24 00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:37.560 man if I'm wrong here scoop. But when I looked this dude up, 25 00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:42.799 I was like, uh man, uh, this dude looks like a super 26 00:01:42.840 --> 00:01:46.400 fan. I mean, like, you know, he he going for it 27 00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:49.079 man. I mean, look, look, he had this whole outfit going 28 00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.400 on. And then he tells me he updated his outfit and made it even 29 00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.719 better this year, and it does. It looks amazing. Man, you 30 00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:59.640 look awesome. So that's why I had to put my head game gear on 31 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:02.280 to get I had to get like game ready, just like I would if 32 00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:07.719 I was going to watch the Titans game. Yeah. And uh so yeah, 33 00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:15.680 so we're here and uh, main topic tonight defense defense? How are 34 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.840 we gonna how are we gonna make what we're gonna look like on defense this 35 00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:25.400 year. So it's pretty easy. It's always everything right off the bat. 36 00:02:25.759 --> 00:02:30.479 We're healthy, we could easily be a top fifteen, top twenty defense. 37 00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:35.759 You know, if if we stay healthy. That's always the problem. Though, 38 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:44.599 we've had an injury bug and it's for the for the last two years. 39 00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:46.879 For the last two years, the injury bug has been on our ass. 40 00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:50.520 But it's time for us to shake that. It's time for us. 41 00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:53.919 I think it's time for the injury bug to fly. It's on this ass 42 00:02:54.000 --> 00:03:02.879 on up out of Nasville. Man, So yeah, that's exactly last three 43 00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:10.159 ye yes, Scoop's got going on. Yeah, that was That's what That's 44 00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:15.759 what I was so honestly, to be honest, when when I thought about 45 00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:19.199 the show, I was like, man, I'm not gonna have a lot 46 00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:23.000 to talk about because, to be honest, our defense wasn't that terrible last 47 00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:27.599 year When you think about it, I mean, seventeen and a half points 48 00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:30.159 a game. You know, that's that's not that bad. It's one of 49 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:37.800 the better defenses if you look at it from that one stat perspective. Yeah. 50 00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:44.360 But other than that, man, yeah, we came you know, 51 00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:47.080 he uh as a rookie. He came in there and did his thing. 52 00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:51.879 You know, he played every game. He played well. He made mistakes, 53 00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.240 but rookies do. But he though he made a big spot for that 54 00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:59.240 defense. And I think he's gonna be even better this year. So it's 55 00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:03.039 great tag, great tackler, A little small body. That's the only problem 56 00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:06.800 with McCary is he's a little small body, but he's quick. He makes 57 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:11.080 up for it with the lead. He's got really good reach. Um, 58 00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:14.319 I mean he is, he is a baller. I'm not taking anything away 59 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:19.319 from McCreary, um, but him and uh Christian Fulton both score like I 60 00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:25.199 think a sixty four and a sixty two respectively. A pff. Sean Murphy 61 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:30.480 Bunting just for just for reference scores like a seventy six or seventy eight. 62 00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:34.519 So, speaking of Sean Murphy bunting a school, how do you feel about 63 00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:39.079 I knew pickups that we got on defense. We're gonna start off with art. 64 00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:47.879 Oh oh oh oh h yeah yeah, sir, So we we got 65 00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:51.560 excited about it. We got art, we got we picked up Art and 66 00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:57.000 Key from the Jaguars. We got a ziz Al Shayer from the forty nine 67 00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.079 ers and we got Sean Murphy bunting from Tampa Bay Is. Those was three 68 00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:04.120 big pickups for the on free agency. How you feeling? How you feeling? 69 00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:09.040 How you feel about those three pickups and how would they help maximize our 70 00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:12.000 defense? School? Man, you got me having goose bumps right now. 71 00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.959 Man, it's gonna be the defense is gonna be fired this year, you 72 00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:18.439 know. I mean Simmons getting paid, that's just gonna make him play even 73 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:23.759 harder. Hopefully Landry will be better, you know, because he's huge. 74 00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:30.240 Twelve sacks, we can't. We gotta have that back, Hue. I 75 00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:34.439 want to see I want to see Weaver do something. He'll play in the 76 00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:38.800 role. Maybe two picks. You know, I'm ready for the defense. 77 00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:44.199 I'm excited. What about What about you? Max? How are you feeling? 78 00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.839 Well? I tell you what, man, everything everything on the defensive 79 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:54.199 side. As long as our starters are on the field, we are fire. 80 00:05:54.759 --> 00:06:00.279 Yeah, Yeah, we're absolute fire. Yeah. If anything happens to 81 00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:08.399 any one of our starters, we are in trouble. Now. We're not 82 00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:11.920 talking about interior defensive line now that we're a little deep right there. But 83 00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:16.879 other than that, man outside linebacker, we got a little bit we can 84 00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:20.879 play with, but not I mean not a lot, because they're really they're 85 00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:28.199 really moving weaver more of to the to the to the line tight you know, 86 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.000 line type guy that can back up and also do that OLB kind of 87 00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:36.439 rush guy or you know, so that kind of gets him away more away 88 00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:42.040 from linebacker spot, more towards line. And I don't know, man, 89 00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:45.360 I'm just I'm worried. I look at it and I'm worried. Although I 90 00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:48.439 will say this now, surprising stats to me that really stuck out was Money 91 00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:51.839 Rice. Man. A lot of people give Money Rice crap. And he 92 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:57.319 was the four tackler, fourth best tackler on the team last year. And 93 00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:59.759 and I mean when he was on the field, he was fired. Dude. 94 00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:02.879 He I think we have like three ten tackle games last year, Monty 95 00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:09.399 Rice, Dude, shout out man, Georgia Man, Yeah, you know, 96 00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:14.839 I love our fronts. The opportunity to be pretty good this year. 97 00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:21.480 Yeah, I personal with hell seven can be nasty. Oh yeah, that's 98 00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:25.959 that's what I'm saying. As long as long as everybody stays on the field 99 00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:29.439 will be all right. Now we've been we've been the number one Russian defense 100 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:33.199 for last two years in a row, so I pretty much expect that again. 101 00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:38.959 And yeah, I mean yeah, me personally, I feel like we 102 00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:41.879 got one of the best front sevens in the league. Like when you're talking 103 00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:46.399 about Jeffery Simmons, we got de Nico Autry and you know whoever we were 104 00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.480 rotating in on that on that uh the nose tackle position, even if it's 105 00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:55.199 na Kwan Jones or whoever we're throwing in at that moment, start baby, 106 00:07:55.439 --> 00:08:03.959 yeah yeah, and yeah, look at history Titans history, the front seven 107 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.879 has always been nasty. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, 108 00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:13.000 like like school mentioned, we need Harold Landry to come back and return 109 00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.000 to his form twelve sacks before he took it, he got injured, and 110 00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:20.600 man if Jeff, big Jeff, and then hey, Art and kid is 111 00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:24.720 gonna be a big pick up. I think he's gonna be a big upgrade 112 00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:37.759 over Bud Duprix. So he's he's course for sure yet and then as he 113 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.759 shout here, I love everything I'm hearing about that guy. You know, 114 00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.519 he's fast, he's all around the ball. He's gonna take that David Long 115 00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:48.879 position where he will kind of be the you know, the mic up linebacker. 116 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.200 In the middle of the field. And I'm loving what I'm hearing about 117 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:56.200 that guy. So our front seven would definitely be the strongest part of our 118 00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:01.720 defense, maybe the whole team. It might be our solid group of guys 119 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:05.600 that we got. See. Our only thing I'm worried about is our secondary. 120 00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:07.080 Of course. I mean, we always have this thing where we have 121 00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:13.080 problems with covering. Why would out covering tight ends? Glad you brought that 122 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:16.559 up. Yeah, glad you brought that up, man. And the reason 123 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:20.960 is is because I think our secondary is gonna be insanely improved this year. 124 00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:26.480 Let me tell you. Why tell me? Because we get those twelve sacks 125 00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:31.600 out of Harold Landry, we get double digit sacks season. We'll say, 126 00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.720 ten eleven sacks out of Jeffrey Simmons, then we get and then we get 127 00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:45.039 another ten twelve sacks out of Arden Key and Rashad Weaver, and then we 128 00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:48.320 have everybody gotten each other on the back. It's gonna be good. I 129 00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:52.240 mean, if you got quarterbacks running for the life, I mean, the 130 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:54.600 last time they got to throw that ball, I mean, it takes pat 131 00:09:54.639 --> 00:10:00.000 off the corners, Man Brook. You look at last season, man, 132 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.120 and you look at last season. Man, everybody, it was like a 133 00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:09.000 rushing opponents had I'm throwing just some stats at you here. Opponents had nine 134 00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:16.799 rushing touchdowns against US. Nine, yes, sir, at twenty nine passing 135 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:22.039 touchdowns against US. Right, you know what that tells me, Hey, 136 00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:28.360 they can't run the ball period and can get weakness is right there. Yeah, 137 00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:31.039 we don't want you. If we don't want you to get one yard, 138 00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:35.120 you're not even gonna get a yard. And that's what that means that 139 00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.720 that's impressive right there, sir. But the twenty nine pass touching now, 140 00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:46.679 and now, that shows a lot of use back. You know, there's 141 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:50.120 a lot of use there. What you look at our sacks last year, 142 00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:56.080 we were at like forty seven i think forty seven sacks for a season, 143 00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:01.399 the whole season. Man, we have forty sacks at a half the season 144 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:05.159 last or in twenty twenty one. Yea, it's sick, dude. I 145 00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:09.919 mean, if you look at the numbers, the difference of the past touchdowns 146 00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:13.559 in twenty twenty one to twenty twenty two and the sacks in twenty twenty one 147 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.919 to twenty twenty two, they collate, man, And when you put pressure 148 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.480 on the quarterback. He ain't got enough time. It takes heat off your 149 00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:24.879 corners. Your corners can produce. They end up throwing stupid ass balls. 150 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:28.440 Thank you, Josh Allen. Every time you do that, I love you 151 00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.759 know, and and would take them from me. You know, mayor Murphresborough 152 00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:35.799 or somebody gonna step up there and just snatch that ball out of the air. 153 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.080 Somebody don't get it. And there's another thing. I wanted to bring 154 00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:43.919 up some names real quick. Uh, some people out there that I think 155 00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:50.080 the Titans actually should look at. There was an article I read about Josh 156 00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:54.559 klu I think it was Titan size if if I'm if I'm getting that wrong, 157 00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.240 I'm sorry giving the wrong person credit. But I believe that's who it 158 00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:05.000 was, and I agree, but I disagree. I think Josh Keleue would 159 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.240 be a good pickup at this point because we could use safety d DDV defensive 160 00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:13.080 back help however you want to say it. But the better pickup for me 161 00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.360 is Dame Crookshank. Oh, he's still out there right now. He's a 162 00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:18.879 free agent. And I thought he was great as a tight end killer. 163 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.759 H you know, he had his best year as a Titan with us at 164 00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.600 his last year, you know, right before he tried to ditches for the 165 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:31.159 Bears and and sucked all year and couldn't stay on. But that's what happens 166 00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:37.320 when you leave the Titans, guys, um anyway, is it nobody else 167 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:43.840 though, I'm thinking, I'm thinking he should be a bad I mean, 168 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:50.000 there there are some names, but I mean last in Miami before he got 169 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:56.200 hurt. Yeah, exactly what happens, y'all. That's what when you break 170 00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:58.799 out as the Titan, if you break out your your last season as a 171 00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:05.120 it is historically known that if you leave the Titan, you want to get 172 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.159 like hurt. Yeah, you're gonna have a ship season, or you're gonna 173 00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:11.039 get hurt, or you're gonna do something really stupid, or I mean, 174 00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:20.440 something always happens. It's always crazy how many times that Yeah, you know, 175 00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:26.480 maybe that's the way it works. But I'm glad that we don't really 176 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:30.759 have to worry about that too much right now with our current GM. I 177 00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.960 feel like he's gonna he's gonna reward the players that need to be rewarded. 178 00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:37.360 I honestly think a lot of people are worried about Kevin Byrd, and I 179 00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:43.279 honestly think Kevin Byrd is probably gonna retire a Titan. I believe that, 180 00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:46.360 in my heart of hearts, I believe that he will retire a Titan. 181 00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:52.200 He's gonna do everything he can to retire as a Titan. That's for sure. 182 00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:56.559 He deserved it. We deserve. We deserve to have our players retires 183 00:13:56.559 --> 00:13:58.720 tight. You know, it's too many times. Well, you know, 184 00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:01.480 we don't pay our players in the last couple of years of their career and 185 00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.559 they go off somewhere else. We gotta put the end of that. Man, 186 00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:07.440 we need some players who are gonna we drafted, They're gonna play their 187 00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.759 whole career in Nashville, and they're gonna retire in Nashville. So we gotta, 188 00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:16.240 you know, keep that going. And uh and you know so I 189 00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.200 would definitely love to see Kevin Byer retire as a Titan. And I also 190 00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:24.840 want to see Kevin Byer have a breakout another one of those thirteen fourteen reception 191 00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:30.200 of seasons this year, return to his pro form, return to the Pro 192 00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:33.279 Bowl, because man, hey, I love Kevin Byers. Definitely one of 193 00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:37.000 my favorite Titans on all he is one of my favorites. Two if he 194 00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:45.159 can do his job and doesn't have to worry about everybody else's job. He's 195 00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:52.399 been yeah job. And see that goes to our corners. If our corners 196 00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:56.240 can just hold their own to where Kevin Byer can just play ballhawk in the 197 00:14:56.240 --> 00:15:01.080 middle of the field, he'll have a breakout year. But it's twenty times 198 00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:03.919 lately while it's been too many times lately, while our corners have been getting 199 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:09.200 burnt, and he's been having to make up for their lack of coverage, 200 00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:11.919 and it's been making him look bad because you know, he's trying to make 201 00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:16.240 up and sometimes these receivers are too damn fast and it just make him by 202 00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.720 look like he just slow and went in in position the whole time, when 203 00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:22.840 the whole when, the whole time, he was trying to help the corner. 204 00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:28.519 So corner, it's gotta play good. That's why. That's why I 205 00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:31.399 love the Sean Murphy. But to pick up I want Roger McCreary to keep 206 00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:35.320 improving. And I hate to keep saying this, Max, but I won't 207 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.720 fucking Kayla Farley to get on the field and show us something. Man, 208 00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:50.000 show us something Farley Taylor party. All right, Look, I gotta throw 209 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:58.200 some stats out, Carl. Look, you know what I would love to 210 00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:02.639 be wrong on that? I would I love it. My wife. My 211 00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:06.120 wife always says that now I got that from her. I got I stole 212 00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:08.720 that saying from her. But I love being wrong what I'm wrong about shit 213 00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:14.120 like that like that. I don't feel like you might have an old man. 214 00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:17.039 I'm forty five. He's probably gonna back like me, now, you 215 00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:21.840 know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, out there, Adam. We'll 216 00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:25.080 get to the questions here in just a second. Man, let me run 217 00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:27.519 down these stats real quick. Number one, run defense already said that seventy 218 00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:33.159 seven yards average a game, Sir, seventy seven yards average a game, 219 00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.679 seventeen and a half points a game. That is amazing defense right there. 220 00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:42.399 If we can do that and boost her offense, then we're gonna win gats 221 00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:49.759 and put the asters by that. That's unhealthy. To imagine us completely healthymagin 222 00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:56.960 was completely healthy without all. Right, now, then let's let's let's dig 223 00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:03.480 into the other stats. Other stats. Twenty eight in the league in passing 224 00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:11.799 defense two hundred and forty five yards a game average. That's rough, that's 225 00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:19.440 not good. Twentieth in the past rush last year twenty and I you know, 226 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:22.960 I blame a lot of that old Landry being injured, sent Us being 227 00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:29.880 hurt. Not you know, them two guys right there, when they're healthy, 228 00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:33.480 it's it's it's a different defense. Yeah, and I think we're gonna 229 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:34.920 have a whole different defense that year. I mean, we were relying on 230 00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:38.599 bud Dupris. I would never like that pick. From the moment they did 231 00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:41.599 it. It was just like the Jadevion clowney. I knew it was gonna 232 00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:47.359 be just like the Jada and people bash on Jadavion clinny, but he was 233 00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:52.079 actually better than bud Dupris. I believe in in my I mean, I 234 00:17:52.160 --> 00:18:00.359 mean not not not as a Titan. I wouldn't say Jada Entrey. We 235 00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:06.960 still you know he's gonna have a big season two. You know that's any 236 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:17.599 Autrey is uh an X waiting. I'm waiting for sepping because Autrey is thirty 237 00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:22.200 six years old. All right, I'm thirty nine. I know what I 238 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:32.559 mean. He gets pressure because I man, even though it's I guess even 239 00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:37.440 huge. You know, it's hard, dude, it's hard to get out 240 00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:41.880 there. Age actually gets a lot, actually gets a lot of pressure man, 241 00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:45.440 I think he can get five or six AX this year. He might 242 00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:48.960 even go seven. Yeah, I agree. I think I think he's I 243 00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:52.480 think he's over five. I'll take you on over five for sure. I'll 244 00:18:52.519 --> 00:19:00.640 take you. I would. This is the worst stat to me, thirty 245 00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:12.680 one first downs on penalty by the defense. Thirty one. I do you 246 00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:18.440 know, I don't know. He hated You know what I say to that 247 00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:22.880 as a coach. As a coach, I would be pissed. I would 248 00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:30.920 be completely pissed playing for a league that allows PI calls on those junk ass 249 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:36.240 under thrown balls. But I mean that crap. I mean until they stop 250 00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:40.079 that or figure out a way to stop that, that's gotta be like a 251 00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:44.480 PI on the offense and give the give the defense fifteen yards back, you 252 00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:48.000 know, something like that. And that's what and that's and that's what happened 253 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:52.799 on a lot of those players, like our posing quarterbacks had had gotten you 254 00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:56.920 know the word that out of corners just suck at getting their head turned around. 255 00:19:57.160 --> 00:20:00.359 So if they get in trouble, hey sending it wide out on the 256 00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:03.960 go route and throw that mug up and they're most likely going to get a 257 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:08.079 PI. Because our corner is not gonna get his head around and they're gonna 258 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:17.680 we're gonna rob them for the past interference. Yeah, A scoop says, 259 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:22.759 no school basses at a coaching thing. It absolutely is. We have to 260 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:26.400 teach our corners, you know, technique, you gotta get your head turned 261 00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.519 around and look at the ball. Like if you don't look at the ball, 262 00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:33.359 they're gonna get you every time. So that goes into coaching. You 263 00:20:33.359 --> 00:20:40.000 know, we brought uh uh and I want I want to say Brandon Uh. 264 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:42.880 Well, either way, we got a new defensive back coach and uh, 265 00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:47.519 I think he's he's gonna get our cornerbacks, right. I'm I'm I'm 266 00:20:47.640 --> 00:20:52.799 loving what I'm hearing about the cornerbacks coach and how the technique he's teaching them. 267 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:55.759 So you know, I mean, I'm feeling good about that. I 268 00:20:55.799 --> 00:20:59.799 think the days of the quarterback just throwing it up in the air and praying 269 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:03.720 then we get a PI and and they we actually get the PI those days 270 00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:07.359 over. So yeah, I'm excited too because you know last season they gave 271 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.759 a season ticket holders the PIP passes the training camp and we got to see 272 00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:15.359 some you know, so I'm hoping they do that again this year. I'm 273 00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:18.599 ready to see some of some of the rookies, some of the new coaches. 274 00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:22.240 I'm opening they opened it up to the public. Yeah, oh they 275 00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:26.319 do sometimes. But I remember back in the day before COVID when I could 276 00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:29.920 just come up there, like, you know, I'd come up there at 277 00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:36.240 least hang out a three different days I think, or four different days or 278 00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:40.200 something like that. You could come just and hang out, watch the practice, 279 00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:42.400 hang out all the days, you know. Yeah, some autographs and 280 00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:47.440 everything, you know, Yeah, talk to the players after the practice was 281 00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:49.640 out. It was cool, man, it was so cool. It's just 282 00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:55.400 like Titan Caravan. I'm trying to get that back to man. I I've 283 00:21:55.400 --> 00:21:57.279 been you know. I actually put up a petition for that, but it 284 00:21:57.359 --> 00:22:06.119 didn't go there. But let me get back on trag here. We got 285 00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:10.960 fourteen turnovers, which was pretty average with the league. Uh, but some 286 00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:17.759 some other parts that I don't like. In the red zone scoring that is 287 00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:21.880 way way way down from twenty twenty one. Twenty twenty one, we were 288 00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:29.400 number one of the league defense and red zones that like seventeen percent or something 289 00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:32.720 like that. It was ridiculous. Teams could not score on us once they 290 00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:41.359 got into Ben don't break at working anymore. So the worst defense, the 291 00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:45.480 worst. One of the worst stats, I keep saying the worst stat, 292 00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:52.480 but the one of the worst stats to me again is zero return touchdowns zero 293 00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:57.160 not not one return man? Come on, what happened to the return game, 294 00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:06.759 y'all? NFL two of my return game. I hated that. That 295 00:23:06.839 --> 00:23:10.519 really sucks because with our struggles that our offense had, we could have used 296 00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:14.480 now, we could have used some return touchdowns to help these guys out some 297 00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:18.440 guys some games, but we just some gays. We just couldn't move the 298 00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:21.960 ball. I had a return touchdown to spark the offense. You never know, 299 00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:25.400 so we gotta get that going. Hadn't catch the ball. We had 300 00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:27.240 a lot of trouble with him dropping it. You know that same man, 301 00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:30.119 I see him just catching the ball. Yeah, I don't really care. 302 00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:34.039 I loved it. When Grapes put what to the woods back there, he 303 00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:37.920 was like, I don't get my number one receivers going back there right now. 304 00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:41.880 I don't care. No, I was happy. Damn what was his 305 00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:44.440 name? What was the wide out we had back there? Until he got 306 00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:48.440 her? He was doing a pretty good job, Pip No, no, 307 00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:51.319 no, I like Phillips. H No, it was at the end of 308 00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:53.680 the he did good until he started fumbling. But yeah, then he started 309 00:23:53.759 --> 00:23:57.279 dropping. Yeah. At the end of the season. We had had a 310 00:23:57.279 --> 00:24:02.240 wide out y'all. His I forgot his names, like eighty four six. 311 00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:07.000 He had a hurt shoulder, right, yeah, Phillips, yeah, Phillips. 312 00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:11.480 Yeah in the second game. That's that's why he fumbled. You watched 313 00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:15.079 the team. He does like that, Like literally, his arm doesn't even 314 00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:19.759 go up with the arm we put on that one. He put on that 315 00:24:19.799 --> 00:24:22.079 weight and muscle. Man, he gonna have a breakout, you know. 316 00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:27.640 I you know, I love some Kyle Phillips. I want really, really, 317 00:24:27.680 --> 00:24:32.359 really really man. I know, dude, thank you, thank you 318 00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:36.279 you feeling me, dude. I oh man, they got me so mad 319 00:24:36.359 --> 00:24:41.880 when they crap bullcrap. Man. Look, I'll tell you another thing real 320 00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:44.319 quick, just to get off on some stupid tangents. I don't know if 321 00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:48.640 y'all watch the XFL, but I obviously I am a football fan. I 322 00:24:48.640 --> 00:24:52.559 don't care if you're watching peewee football, if you're watching UFL, CFL, 323 00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:59.160 USFL, XFL. I watched it all Arena Football League. I watched everything 324 00:24:59.359 --> 00:25:04.680 football, don't care, okay, And the XFL has the best return rules 325 00:25:06.119 --> 00:25:12.079 in the game. They are actually doing safety for the player's sake, not 326 00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:17.160 to take away from the game. They didn't take anything away from the return 327 00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:22.160 game and still made it a lot safer for the players. And that should 328 00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:26.359 be an example. That's what the xf That's why the XFL and the NFL 329 00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:30.720 are tied together, guys. It's so that when the XFL succeeds at something 330 00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:37.160 that the NFL can incorporate it into their game without any kind of copyright issues 331 00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:41.279 or anything like that. That's the whole reason there are minor league. So 332 00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:49.319 listen to me, NFL Roger Goodell, all you owners out there aming Adams 333 00:25:49.400 --> 00:25:56.480 Strump, please listen to me.

Come back to me. Tell me if I 336 00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.359 ain't right, man. Yeah, But how would you feel, though, 337 00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:11.000 if you came to work the next day and they told you you lost sixty 338 00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:22.960 million dollars? Upset? You know? That's that's you. I don't know. 339 00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:26.799 It depends on how much money I got, right, Yeah, I 340 00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:30.640 know, I'm on a couple of billions. Like it's like a damn that 341 00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:41.960 sucks, right, Yeah, it's like, damn that sucks. Needed that, 342 00:26:41.279 --> 00:26:45.279 I guess, but I guess that's all right? Yeah, all right, 343 00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:48.519 so all right, so let's all right. Now let's get into my 344 00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:53.079 favorite segment of the show, guys, the fans segment. That's why we 345 00:26:53.119 --> 00:26:59.319 brought you on here, Scoop. We are for the fans. We say 346 00:26:59.359 --> 00:27:02.759 that we want the fans to be interactive. So we got all the questions. 347 00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:07.279 So I got some questions from Friday show that I didn't get to with 348 00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:11.039 Cortland because we were having a great time. If y'all miss that show, 349 00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:14.079 go back and watch it, start about thirty minutes in and just keep watching 350 00:27:14.119 --> 00:27:17.960 because it goes for an hour and fifty minutes. It's ridiculous that a great 351 00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:22.480 show. Great content in there, some great content, or just watch some 352 00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:29.559 of the shorts that I've been putting again, great content. Frankie Hammond, 353 00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:30.960 we had a question from him a couple of weeks ago, but he's got 354 00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:34.119 another great one here. He says, is Stonehouse the best punter in the 355 00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:38.119 NFL? Yes, I'm gonna go ahead, and I was gonna say, 356 00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:41.599 all right, I'm ahead and let you guys answer that. Yes, yes, 357 00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:45.720 fact, yes, yes, Frankie, he has a big leg. 358 00:27:47.039 --> 00:27:49.839 Do you know how to corner kick that ball? He's he broke the record 359 00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:57.640 year rookie season. Yeah, exactly, you're half right, you're half right. 360 00:27:57.799 --> 00:28:03.880 He got a leg like a cannon. Man. That dude he got 361 00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:07.960 doesn't need to work on the aim a little bit. Yeah, he doesn't 362 00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:11.319 work and he needs to work on the touch a little bit because there was 363 00:28:11.319 --> 00:28:14.839 a time he sent that thing like through the uprights and it was like, 364 00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:19.880 broy that hard. You know what I mean, I'm gonna I'm gonna tell 365 00:28:19.880 --> 00:28:25.200 you. I'm gonna tell you the good thing. Though he's a fucking rookie. 366 00:28:25.200 --> 00:28:27.039 He got plenty of years to work on. Hey yeah, no, 367 00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:36.799 it can over during the NFL. Now, I'll say that top five apps 368 00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:47.839 are freaking look. Top three, yeah, maybe top yeah, maybe maybe 369 00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:49.839 top two. But I don't know, man, I don't know. There's 370 00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:53.000 some good punters out there. Man, I know, I know y'all think 371 00:28:53.000 --> 00:29:00.039 of dumb because let's answer that question after this season. There, you know 372 00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:03.079 that's a that's a good I like that, Scoop, I like that. 373 00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:11.039 All right, we got what do you do this season? Chuck sheets Man, 374 00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:12.960 he hit me with all kinds of crazy questions. There's a couple of 375 00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:21.519 them that are that are a little little little little nuttie um. First one, 376 00:29:21.559 --> 00:29:23.279 so, who's who's the Titans gonna play in the super Bowl this year? 377 00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:36.519 Who want the Super Bowl? Man? You can play the Jet Oh 378 00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:40.599 who were playing and who were playing in the Super Bowl? Who's going to 379 00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:44.680 the super Bowl in the NFC is basically what he's asking. The Titans are 380 00:29:44.839 --> 00:29:52.519 going to play the Philadelphia Eagles and the boom. That's what we're gonna be. 381 00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:56.240 We're gonna be. We're gonna be a J. Brown and we're gonna 382 00:29:56.240 --> 00:30:00.279 wish him. We're gonna make him wish he would have stayed in Tennessee. 383 00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:03.039 We're gonna beat We're gonna beat Jalen Hurts. We're gonna beat the tightens over 384 00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:08.319 Eagles in the Super Bowl. Yes, sir, Yes, sir. Hey 385 00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:12.480 J. Brown, you're going down a J You're going down. J. 386 00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:18.680 Brown. You're going down, all right. And the next one will will 387 00:30:18.799 --> 00:30:23.279 Derrick Henry b League in VP. No, No, he won't be League 388 00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:30.000 MVP, but he he will lead the league in Russian. He will league 389 00:30:30.039 --> 00:30:33.880 in Russian and he will return to MVP form, but he probably won't win 390 00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:42.880 MVP Quarterback Trophy. Yeah, exactly. It's probably gonna go to uh Aaron 391 00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:48.079 Rodgers because I think he's got the ball with the Jets. Or it might 392 00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:52.599 go to Patrick Mahomes or Jack I might finally get in one. I don't 393 00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:57.640 know, will see, right, Jay Hurts gonna go to one of the 394 00:30:57.839 --> 00:31:00.759 one of the quarterbacks that goes to the super Bowl. That's usually the way 395 00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:06.359 it works. Um, that's I mean, just just being just being real, 396 00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:11.440 that's usually how it works. Um, is a field goal kicking game 397 00:31:11.519 --> 00:31:18.839 still a concern? That's a fat Yeah? Definitely. Yeah. And my 398 00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:22.200 co host don't even agree as to which kicker is better. How do you 399 00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.119 know? I mean, how do you think the Titans coaches feel? They're 400 00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:30.119 guys and they're going, all right, we got a bag of manure and 401 00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:36.319 we got a bag of I mean, I don't even know their names, 402 00:31:36.680 --> 00:31:40.759 that's how bad it is. I can tell you. I can tell you 403 00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:48.000 it's Galuba exactly. I mean that's what we got at the moment. Yeah, 404 00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:52.839 I'm rooting for Wolf. I believe my boy's rooting for Shoot. Acc 405 00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.880 Ye, she got hurt last year, right, Shot that got hurt last 406 00:31:56.920 --> 00:32:02.079 year. Yeah. Yeah, I'd like to see him do good. Yeah, 407 00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:07.039 I do too. I was impressed that, uh for a while there 408 00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:10.720 Wolf. There's an article I wrote on fan Battlesports dot com. If you 409 00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:17.200 ain't ready, go read it. Um, but he went for like fourteen 410 00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:22.319 and fourteen at the beginning of OTAs or something like that. There was a 411 00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:27.119 good long period of time there that Trey Wolf they were trading off back forth. 412 00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:29.400 I don't know why they were doing it that way, but they would 413 00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:31.119 have one kicker for two or three days and they'd have another kicker for two 414 00:32:31.200 --> 00:32:37.599 or three days. And Trey Wolf like nail every single kick he kicked at 415 00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:44.480 OTAs for a long time, he did not miss and they never worry about 416 00:32:44.599 --> 00:32:46.880 and we do. Yeah, that's kind of why I'm rooting for man Is 417 00:32:47.559 --> 00:32:52.119 Man. I just I like kickers that can get in that groove and just 418 00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:55.240 kind of just go with it, you know what I mean. But let's 419 00:32:55.279 --> 00:33:00.759 see here, we also got um are we gonna leading injuries for three years 420 00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:09.359 in a row? No, I don't think so I hope not. I 421 00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:16.160 hope man. Uh And who's to blame if we do? And I've been 422 00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:22.119 saying it the whole time, strength and conditioning coaches, I don't have good 423 00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:25.839 I mean, if our players aren't in good condition, and we have the 424 00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:35.079 highest rate injury of NFL players, there's a two years. One year is 425 00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:39.279 could be a fluke, two years could be a fluke. But three years 426 00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:45.319 in a row now for me once and then fol me twice. And if 427 00:33:45.480 --> 00:33:52.039 you know anyways, send them to Indy, send them to Indy. Send 428 00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:55.880 them all we can do. We can do what we did with the Jets. 429 00:33:55.920 --> 00:34:00.640 Man the Jets and poor bastards. They picked up uh Todd Downing, 430 00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:07.039 which is our offensive coordinator, as their pass game coordinator, which is hilarious. 431 00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:12.480 And then like we didn't even have a passing game last year, y'all, 432 00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:15.559 y'all, y'all have this man to be a passing game. And then 433 00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:17.400 yeah, and then he was like, hey, I got an idea. 434 00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:22.760 You know, our offensive line was banging in Tennessee last year, so I'm 435 00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:28.840 gonna bring the offensive line coach with me. And we were like before year, 436 00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:31.800 yeah, yeah, that's why when you said he was gonna get m 437 00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:35.400 VP. I was like, man, are you sure he gonna be beat 438 00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:39.079 up a lot? You know? Todd Downing was saying, oh, it 439 00:34:39.199 --> 00:34:45.320 was a personnel problem. For me, it was a personnel problem. He 440 00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:51.039 again, another great piece out there. I don't know. I'm sorry I 441 00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:52.639 can't give you credit, but I don't know who wrote it. But there 442 00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:58.079 is another great piece floating around out there that says that Todd Downing was actually 443 00:34:58.159 --> 00:35:04.599 an agent of destruction, like he was. He came here and and sabotazes 444 00:35:04.639 --> 00:35:08.000 on purpose. Yeah, yeah, exactly. They were like, this dude 445 00:35:08.199 --> 00:35:15.360 is so statistically bad that he literally had to have almost been trying to comp 446 00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:19.599 at his job. Yeah, and that's just that's just sad. Is that 447 00:35:19.679 --> 00:35:27.280 why? Yeah? Probably that's why he got That makes that makes sense because 448 00:35:27.320 --> 00:35:30.559 he had the best game in his career. He had the best game of 449 00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:34.039 his career, then got drunk, So maybe he was depressed that this game 450 00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:37.440 went so good and they actually played good, so he had to go get 451 00:35:37.480 --> 00:35:42.280 ship faced drunk and that's he was like, fuck, he blew the funk 452 00:35:42.320 --> 00:35:47.960 out of the Packers to day, I can't take this all right. And 453 00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:53.360 the last one is uh, which he's right. The last one is is 454 00:35:53.400 --> 00:36:00.719 the old line better? Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh heck yesunding, 455 00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:07.880 yes, okay. First of all, Longest didn't daily gone We're better. 456 00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:15.360 Longest didn't. Right here, Peter Strunsky, first, well, look at 457 00:36:15.400 --> 00:36:30.000 that super fan super fan, I see I won that from the Titans. 458 00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:34.079 That right there is exactly that right, there is exactly one of the reasons. 459 00:36:34.119 --> 00:36:37.119 Man. You know again, if y'all missed the show last week, 460 00:36:37.159 --> 00:36:39.199 go back and watch it. But I asked Cortland, you know, because 461 00:36:39.199 --> 00:36:43.239 he has media access. I was like, man, there was a there 462 00:36:43.320 --> 00:36:45.679 was a play because he kept talking up Jalen Duncan, and I was like, 463 00:36:45.760 --> 00:36:49.800 man, there was this play that I watched over and over and over 464 00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:54.000 again of Peter Spronsky like pancaking this dude. And I later found out that 465 00:36:54.079 --> 00:37:00.119 it was Jaylen dun Yeah. I was like, oh my god, that 466 00:37:00.280 --> 00:37:05.599 don't look good. And he was like, no, you just don't understand. 467 00:37:06.119 --> 00:37:10.239 There are certain people. There are certain levels of difference in people. 468 00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:15.079 He said, there are people, and then there are other things like Derrick 469 00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:22.360 Henry is to a running back, Baron Donald is to us one left by. 470 00:37:23.039 --> 00:37:28.280 Yeah, there are difference makers and That's what he was saying, is 471 00:37:28.280 --> 00:37:30.960 that Peter Scronski is just a man you don't want to be standing in front 472 00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:37.519 of when he comes off the line because he's right. Yeah, he said, 473 00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:43.159 the man's neck look like a tree. Trump. I'm excited, man. 474 00:37:43.480 --> 00:37:47.760 Yeah, the run left is back many high school. So why are 475 00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:51.840 we talking about offensive line? I got a question for you, Yes, 476 00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:55.760 sir, how would you how would you feel you know about that? You 477 00:37:55.760 --> 00:38:00.559 know, and I'm pretty sure you're hip to the NPF suspension and all that, 478 00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:04.400 so you know we're gonna have some rotation on the offensive line. How 479 00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:10.679 would you feel if we brought back Taylor Lowan for a year and he took 480 00:38:10.760 --> 00:38:15.559 veteran minimum and he'll come back and play offensive line? How would you feel 481 00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:19.760 about that? I wouldn't hate it if he's ready to play, But you 482 00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:22.679 know the way he looks now, he doesn't look like he wants to play 483 00:38:22.719 --> 00:38:30.119 anymore. Look, man, he's having too much he's having he having too 484 00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:32.840 much fun with the blessing with the boys. So yeah, yeah, I'll 485 00:38:32.840 --> 00:38:37.280 be real. I'll be real here. Man. I don't I don't. 486 00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:40.239 I don't you look at him. Yeah, he's he's a he's a show. 487 00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:47.119 He's lost a lot of way he's doing. He's his best life right 488 00:38:47.159 --> 00:38:52.280 now. Shout out to my boy TJ. He come in and say, 489 00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:57.400 Titans receivers should be a Titans receivers should be a concerned Can they move the 490 00:38:57.400 --> 00:39:00.440 ball down the field? With t J, I think we really all we 491 00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:05.000 pretty much I all know that the Titans have a problem at receiver right now. 492 00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:07.920 But hey, right now we got our fingers crossed with DeAndre Hopkins. 493 00:39:08.159 --> 00:39:13.000 But uh, you know we're gonna see I mean, it's definitely a concern, 494 00:39:13.159 --> 00:39:15.239 but it's not to the point where like we're like, you know, 495 00:39:15.360 --> 00:39:21.159 doomed about it. I think our offense still can muster up enough offense to 496 00:39:21.239 --> 00:39:23.239 move the ball down to field. We still got trailing trailing birds. We 497 00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:27.840 still got Kyle Phillips. You know we got this. Uh, Chris Moore, 498 00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:35.360 guy, Tigue is almost like yeah, Tigue is almost like yeah, 499 00:39:35.400 --> 00:39:40.559 again, it's a concern, But you guys a big guys. Go to 500 00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:46.480 fan battlesports dot com, go to the blogs and go to the Titans section, 501 00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:52.719 and literally almost all these answers are in there. I've wrote stories about 502 00:39:52.760 --> 00:39:55.119 almost everything you're talking about. Right now. We don't have a lot of 503 00:39:55.440 --> 00:40:01.719 receivers, but we got a lot of pass catchers, sir. Yeah, 504 00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:05.079 we got a lot of colding down as a rookie that you gotta watch out 505 00:40:05.119 --> 00:40:09.639 for as a as a coach. When I look as at a play and 506 00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:15.039 I see my offensive line, you know which has improved for sure. Then 507 00:40:15.079 --> 00:40:20.039 I got Derrick Henry and Ryan Tannehill, who is still solid quarterback when he's 508 00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:22.960 got a lot of targets. And then you got you know, Taj Spears 509 00:40:23.320 --> 00:40:31.159 lined up or impact this year, Yes, that impact. Then we got 510 00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:38.280 he's gonna break out backfield, yeah, everywhere. Yeah, he's gonna be 511 00:40:38.320 --> 00:40:43.840 out here, absolutely right. He's gonna be like Debo, Yes, sir. 512 00:40:47.400 --> 00:40:51.440 If if Kyle Phillips can stay healthy, that'd be great. But even 513 00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:59.000 if Kyle Phillips stay healthy, we still got h Trey Lon Burkes, Uh, 514 00:40:59.199 --> 00:41:01.679 Chris Moore who actually is a pretty good wife receiver. He's a good 515 00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:07.239 listen. And then I heard, I heard, I heard even some Texas 516 00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:10.559 fans saying, don't sleep on that guy. He's a pass catcher, he 517 00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:15.559 runs great, he runs great routes. He could Hey, all we need 518 00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:17.840 is somebody to kiss the ball, So don't sleep on Chris Moore Man. 519 00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:23.960 And I'm telling you guys again, the Colden Dwale thing is real. I 520 00:41:24.039 --> 00:41:28.239 know. I've know y'all say I have some kind of love affair with him 521 00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:30.159 or something, and that's okay, it's all right. You know. I 522 00:41:30.239 --> 00:41:34.760 have love affairs with certain players like Jeffrey Simmons. Hey, how'd that work 523 00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:39.679 out? Yeah? Worked out? Yeah. I also had a love affair 524 00:41:39.719 --> 00:41:43.719 with Derrick Henry. I kept yelling, Hey, we need to we need 525 00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:46.480 to start Derrick Henry. We need to quit letting the select. Marco Murray 526 00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:50.440 still running the ball. I don't care how good he's doing. Derrick Henry, 527 00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:52.440 Man, Derrick Henry. Do you see dude standing next to him, 528 00:41:52.480 --> 00:41:57.400 Derrick Henry. And then they finally let him on the field. And what 529 00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:04.079 happened? Yeah it worked out? Yeah, first down, higher layers though 530 00:42:04.119 --> 00:42:07.920 that there are certain players that come out that I'm not real high on, 531 00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:09.880 and there are players that I am real high on that didn't work out. 532 00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:14.480 But listen, I'm real. For I'm real. I'm pretty good at picking 533 00:42:14.480 --> 00:42:17.119 out players. I'm real high on Caleb, I mean, hold on my 534 00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:21.960 Caleb. Kyle Phillips I'm real high on Kyle Phillips, I'm real high on 535 00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:27.280 TYJ. Spears, I'm real high on this coding Dowal got damn Nilo because 536 00:42:27.360 --> 00:42:30.400 Max put it all in my ear. And but this Josh Wily guy, 537 00:42:30.559 --> 00:42:35.400 This Josh Wily guy I watched. I watched the take on Josh way. 538 00:42:35.760 --> 00:42:39.159 He should be he should be a nice pass catcher. So he's a big 539 00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:45.440 guy and if he puts on a little bit of sneaky good, he needs 540 00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:49.280 to put on a little bit of muscle. But he's got a lot of 541 00:42:49.320 --> 00:42:55.800 talent. Dude is six foot seven. I think he's six seven, and 542 00:42:55.840 --> 00:43:01.880 he has like forty two or forty seven in treach. Didall you have any 543 00:43:01.920 --> 00:43:07.559 idea how tall that is? Do you have any idea how that is? 544 00:43:07.000 --> 00:43:12.159 A quarterback can literally be thrown it into the stands and Josh Wallack jump up 545 00:43:12.199 --> 00:43:17.280 and grab it. Oh yeah, that is amazing. Expects have about through 546 00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:21.760 the two hundred and fifty receiving yards, but I expect Josh wall to have 547 00:43:22.639 --> 00:43:29.719 That's but guess what, see people like that. People like that. That's 548 00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:34.800 why, as t J said, that's why we're not too concerned. Now, 549 00:43:34.840 --> 00:43:37.119 listen, we I mean, it's definitely a weakness of our team. 550 00:43:37.559 --> 00:43:44.119 But just think about if we sign DeAndre Hoppings, how much that problem gets 551 00:43:44.159 --> 00:43:51.559 fixed. You really think just starting him will change everything? I mean, 552 00:43:51.679 --> 00:43:57.280 no, it solidifies our receivers, so it gives us. It gives us 553 00:43:57.400 --> 00:44:04.239 two for sure people that we can throw the ball too with him, hang 554 00:44:04.280 --> 00:44:08.000 on exactly. I will say this, if we signed DeAndre Hopkins, he 555 00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:13.199 will do exactly what he said, and he will make the wide receivers on 556 00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:17.360 our team's jobs easier. He can take some heat off of Trey Lonburg. 557 00:44:17.719 --> 00:44:22.400 Think about this, all those options I was just talking about, now add 558 00:44:22.400 --> 00:44:29.920 DeAndre Hopkins, who I mean, That's why I'm saying I'm having everything doesn't 559 00:44:29.960 --> 00:44:35.280 make a huge difference. That makes us from a six to ten win team 560 00:44:35.360 --> 00:44:40.440 two and eleven to thirteen win team. I'm loving every I'm loving everything we 561 00:44:40.639 --> 00:44:46.480 did. We improved the offensive line. Tannehill can now sit in the pocket 562 00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:51.559 and go through his progressions. And you look back that year Derrick Henry got 563 00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:58.360 two thousand yards. A J. Brown had a thousand and Davis Corey Davis 564 00:44:58.400 --> 00:45:01.239 was like sixteen yards from say we can't run the ball in pass, we 565 00:45:01.599 --> 00:45:07.440 prof can we definitely. Yeah, yeah, so this has to hold it 566 00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:13.480 together. He's talking about Peter Skronsky and this is this dude. This is 567 00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:19.719 our local Homer Scoop. This is a Clarence Scoop Homer whatever. Uh, 568 00:45:19.760 --> 00:45:22.719 this is the guy that I guess you call it trolls us, but he's 569 00:45:22.719 --> 00:45:29.079 a Jaguars fan I think by his comments and uh yeah exactly. And he's 570 00:45:29.119 --> 00:45:32.079 saying he's gonna go up against probe you know, yeah, okay, yeah, 571 00:45:32.119 --> 00:45:36.559 you don't think Peter Scronsky ain't gonna just man handle those dudes. Yeah, 572 00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:42.320 well he was. He listened. He is the first first round pick 573 00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:45.639 for a reason. He's not gonna be afraid of them guys. That's no, 574 00:45:45.760 --> 00:45:49.960 he's not gonna weird every Bible, but he's not gonna lose every boble. 575 00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:52.519 No, no, no, exactly, like bro, you think he 576 00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:58.360 ain't got nnis Daily standing next to him? No snack, we don't speak 577 00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:02.679 his name around here. Listen, Claris, Dennis Daily is the reason that 578 00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:08.119 you guys beat us last year from for that for that uh fake ass fumble 579 00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:12.880 that they the ref call the fumble that was on Dennis Daddy. Body. 580 00:46:13.679 --> 00:46:15.360 All right, we're gonna do one more good question here, because we got 581 00:46:15.400 --> 00:46:21.400 a good one and then and uh dang it we got yeah, and then 582 00:46:21.400 --> 00:46:23.519 we gotta wrap it up, all right, So uh yeah, y'all, 583 00:46:23.599 --> 00:46:25.199 hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. 584 00:46:25.320 --> 00:46:29.039 He says, Hahaha, we'll see them guys be scared of no rookie. 585 00:46:29.119 --> 00:46:31.760 Yeah, okay, all right, we'll see when you're getting pancakes. Hey, 586 00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:39.000 Uh, Dixon here has a good question. What y'all gonna do against 587 00:46:39.159 --> 00:46:45.599 Pitts Bird? Yeah, that means he is Steeler fan. He's definitely die 588 00:46:45.639 --> 00:46:49.880 hard. Still right, all right, bro, let me tell you, 589 00:46:50.000 --> 00:46:52.159 let me tell you what we're gonna do it. Yeah, I got first 590 00:46:52.199 --> 00:46:53.960 of all, Yeah, he's right. Yeah, first of all, Scoob 591 00:46:54.039 --> 00:46:58.559 and Flame were both right. We're gonna win that game. And the reason 592 00:46:58.639 --> 00:47:02.840 being is because of our defense. Our defense is strong, and I think 593 00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:06.679 as long as we're healthy, as long as we're healthy, yeah, we're 594 00:47:06.679 --> 00:47:13.840 gonna. We're gonna. But yeah, yeah, y'all got a problem at 595 00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:20.159 quarterback. That's why we honestly problem. Well, I got a good problem. 596 00:47:20.920 --> 00:47:23.400 I mean, t J y'all got a decent team, but we on 597 00:47:23.480 --> 00:47:27.559 paper, we're better than y'all though, bro, like we we gotta we 598 00:47:27.639 --> 00:47:30.480 got a legit quarterback. We got legit why, I mean running back. 599 00:47:31.039 --> 00:47:35.760 I don't believe in y'all quarterback. I'm not real. I mean, we 600 00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:37.639 don't let you run the ball on it. So we're not worried about Naga 601 00:47:37.719 --> 00:47:42.320 Harris just coming, just going crazy on it. And now we ain't drunk, 602 00:47:42.360 --> 00:47:47.599 bro, We're just telling the truth. Everybody. Everybody's scared.
